Frank Sinatra - Reprise (The Very Good Years)

The Sinatra thing isn't just about Frank. Back in the late 80s there was a revival of this stuff and it was referred to as Mob Music. To fully get into it, you'll want to get a good working knowledge of -

Dean Martin

Vic Damone

Andy Williams

Tony Bennett

Linda Ronstadt with The Nelson Riddle Orchestra (What's New)

Paul Anka

Bobby Darin (Beyond The Sea, etc.)

Nat King Cole

Henry Mancini

Herb Alpert

Al Martino

Jerry Vale

Basically, it was the music scene that started in the 50s in various places and then seemed to gravitate to Vegas. Back in the day, Vegas wasn't as watered down as it is now - watch Casino for reference.
